The Last of Us TV Series from HBO To Have Four Seasons in Total, Hints Showrunner

HBO’s The Last of Us 1 was a huge hit among fans. This franchise is working for season 2. While fans were happily gearing up for the upcoming season to come on HBO soon, writer Craig Mazin revealed the teams’ future plans. The Last of Us series might offer four or five seasons for fans following the popularity of the debut one. 

Based on the narrative of a survival adventure video game with the same name, this show was totally worth the watch. Pedro Pascal’s appearance as Joel and the terrific Bella Ramsey as Ellie became viewers’ favorite. Now it is time to wait for the surprises, that season 2 will offer.

Will The Last of Us series offer multiple seasons for fans?

Fans long anticipated season 2 of HBO’s popular The Last of Us series. Recently, this anticipation grew stronger with this show’s writer and co-creator Craig Mazin revealing some exclusive teasers about the project. Craig Mazin said that he accepted his earlier comment on bringing multiple seasons of this popular show. However, the writer’s response prioritized the narrative over everything- “You never know. It can end up being three or five. But four seems like a good number. Some seasons, because of the story we’re telling, will need fewer episodes and some will need more.”

However, Mazin also spoke that never for once in his life, he was satisfied with a budget bump. He further discussed HBO’s cooperation with the team and appreciation for the creative success of the show.
